Monday, June 23, 2025
Mr. KRISHNAMOORTHI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Didi Krishna
Kumari, a revered spiritual leader, humanitarian, and educator whose
lifelong commitment to service has uplifted communities across the
globe.
Born on May 9, 1961, Didi Krishna began her spiritual journey at the
age of three under the guidance of saints Sadhu T.L. Vaswani and Dada
J.P. Vaswani. She now serves as the head of the Sadhu Vaswani Mission,
leading with humility, wisdom, and dedication to service.
Founded in the 1930's, the Sadhu Vaswani Mission has flourished under
Didi Krishna's leadership into a global force for compassion and
healing. With more than 60 centers across five continents, the Mission
carries out extensive work in education, health care, spiritual
development, and humanitarian relief. For over ninety years, it has
served those most in

need--uplifting the poor, the sick, the voiceless, and the forgotten.
To many, Didi Krishna is more than a leader; she is a spiritual guide
and a saint-like presence. Her gentle demeanor, deep compassion, and
unwavering devotion have earned her the love and respect of people from
all walks of life. She leads not with fanfare, but with quiet strength
and grace, always placing service before self.
Mr. Speaker, Didi Krishna Kumari's tireless efforts are a testament
to the profound impact one individual can have through a life of
purpose and humility. It is my honor to recognize her extraordinary
contributions to humanity.
